"Rachel wanted me to check on you and make sure you got home ok." he replied as he walked passed her into the foyer.

JC looked over into the dining room and noticed a tray of food. He had noticed the extra car sitting in the driveway and was curious as to whether or Connie had company. "Rachel said you left early last night. She just wanted to make sure that you were alright."

"Yeah...I'm fine." She replied as she watched him gazing around her house. "Are you?"

"I'm great." he replied, forcing a smile.

"I didn't get a chance to really talk to you last night. When is the big day?"

"We haven't really set a date yet."

"Taking it slow, I see." Connie motioned for him to have a seat in the living room. She sat down in the recliner and found herself starring at him. JC felt her eyes searing through him like knifes.

"So...How is Laura?" he asked, trying to break the silence.

"I have no idea. I was going to ask you, but when I found out about your engagement, I figured it wasn't the right time...Did the two of you split amicably?"

"We parted on good terms...."

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Laura woke up feeling refreshed. She hadn't had a good night's sleep in ages. She smelled a faint scent of eggs and bacon and hoped that her mother was cooking for her. When she neared the stairs she heard her mother speaking. She thought she was talking to herself until she heard a familiar voice. She quietly inched her way down the stairs to get a closer listen.

"...Why did the two of you break it off?"   Connie's attention was pointed out the window at a group of kids riding by on their bikes.

Being in the same room with her made JC's blood boil. He wondered to himself how she could be such a hypocrite. One minute she is basically telling him he made the right decision in leaving her daughter and the next minute she is suddenly acting like a concerned mother. JC rolled his eyes. "I'd rather not say." he replied.

"None of my business...Fair enough. Is it hard for you to being neighbors with her now?"

"Not hard at all. She moved."

Connie was completely shocked. "She moved?!  I thought she loved that house?"

 Laura hadn't gotten around to telling her mother and winced when she heard her reaction.

"She did." he replied as he looked around trying not to make eye contact with Mrs. Charles. He was doing everything in his power to keep his cool. He didn't want a repeat of what had happened the last time the two of them were alone together.

"Do you miss her?"

Laura bent her ear down more towards the room to hear what JC had to say in response. He didn't know if Mrs. Charles was sincerely asking him or if she was going digging for information to go back and tell Rachel. From what he had seen the night before, he was scared that she would tell Rachel if he confessed that he indeed missed Laura.

"No...I don't miss her." he stated with a blank expression on his face.

Mrs. Charles could tell he was lying.  "You have a good poker face. I'll have to keep that in mind the next time you are down and we all decide to play some cards." she joked.

JC got up from the couch and didn't say a word.

"I won't keep you any longer." Connie said as she slowly got up from the recliner to walk JC to the door.

Laura quickly tip-toed upstairs so that she wouldn't be seen.

JC told her he would see her at the wedding if she decided to come. As he was about to make his way towards the porch stairs, Mrs. Charles called after him. He walked back towards her as she closed the front door slightly behind her. "I don't know what went on between you and my daughter, and frankly I don't care. But what I witnessed between the two of you in those 48 hours that you were here is not something that can't be reproduced...No matter how hard you try."

"Why are you telling me this, Mrs. Charles?"

"I know it seems far fetched for me to be coming out of nowhere speaking to you like this, but it's the truth. And I know just how stubborn Laura is...When she had made up her mind about something, that is it. I just...I just don't want you to miss out on anything..."

JC was completely confused. "What are you trying to say?"

"I'm just trying to say that...Our lives are based solely on choices and decisions we make. I just want you to be sure that this choice is the right one."

"You really are something else, lady. One minute you are scolding me and your daughter for being together, the next minute you are pretty much congratulating me on dropping her like a bad habit, and now you are wondering if I am with the right one? Now I see where Laura get's her logic from. You're whole family is screwed up." he said as he threw his hands up before making his way off the porch."

"Oh JC!" she called after him again. He stood there with his back turned to her and waited for her to say something. "I forgive you in advance." she smiled.

JC got into the car and slammed the door before speeding off down the street.

Mrs. Charles went back into the house and leaned against the door thinking to herself. "You didn't tell him did you?" Laura asked.

Connie was startled by her daughter's presence on the stairs. "No sweetie. I kept my word."

Laura smiled and thanked her mother before she headed back upstairs to lay down.

"Laura?" Her mother called after her. Laura turned around to see what she wanted. "I love you."

Laura smiled as she jogged down the steps and hugged her mother tightly. She had gone so many years without hearing her mother say those three words to her. In time, she convinced herself that she didn't need to hear it. But when her mother uttered the phrase she couldn't help but feel as if the weight of the world had temporarily been lifted form her shoulders. She sobbed quietly as her mother rubbed her head and held her tightly. "I love you too, mom."

Later on that night, while driving to the airport, Rachel leaned her head back on the seat, watching JC by the dim dashboard lights while he drove. She loved watching him. Thick brown hair, piercing blue eyes. She found him incredibly attractive with each passing day. Being with him again made her almost forget what she had given up so long ago. The way he moved, the way he talked. Chemistry. She felt it again. That chemistry that only she and him shared. JC glanced at her, and smiled.

"Where's our exit again?" he asked as he navigated with ease. "This seems like a longer drive back than it was coming here.

She nodded. "We get off at the next exit." She grinned at her mischievously. "If you're going to get me off by the time we get there, you're going to have to put in a little more effort."

JC rolled his eyes at her. "All I did was look at you."

She shook her head. "Yeah, but your eyes said it all...you want me. Just make a move."

"Not while I'm driving." He glanced at her.

She looked at him in surprise. "Why? I've gotten off while driving before."

"Yeah, but I don't know this area well at all. I don't want to kill us just because you have the sudden urge to cum, baby."

She nodded, imaging what that might feel like. She slid her hand into the thickness of his hair, toying with it while thinking about what he had said. The more he denied her, the more she was intrigued by the idea. They had many make out sessions in the car before. She snuggled up next to him, still thinking about it. It was late and dark, not very many people were on the highway. They still had a good thirty minutes before they reached the airport. She wondered when the next time they would be this completely alone together. She thought of Nikky and knew probably not for a long time. It took her five more minutes to make up her mind. She slowly slid her hand over his thigh, moving between his legs, pressing her hand against the bulge in his jeans, rubbing against him. He looked at her, raising his eyebrows at her. "What are you doing?"

She grinned at him. "Well, it is nice and dark out here."

"So?"

"So I miss him." she looked down towards his cock. "And I'm more than positive that he misses me...I can feel it." She fumbled with his belt and the zipper on his jeans.

JC wanted to stop her, but his body was begging to do the complete opposite. He eventually gave in and helped her unhook his belt and unbutton his jeans. She watched as he pulled his cock free of his jeans and boxers.

"Just promise me you won't wreck the car," she said as she wrapped her hand around him, loving to touch him.

She moved her hand up and down on him, watching his face in the dim light. She loved watching him as she touched him. He closed his eyes briefly as her hand caressed him. He couldn't stop himself from lifting his hips into her touch. Her touch felt so good. Her hand slid up and down his cock, paying special attention to the spot below the head where she knew he was the most sensitive. He was content to let her touch him that way. Rachel leaned up while still stroking him in her hand and licked his ear lightly before whispering, "You want to be in my mouth don't you, baby."

The words were like fire to a flame. He couldn't help but get chills down his spine and swallow hard trying to concentrate on the road. She smiled coyly when his reaction showed her just how much he wanted her.

Rachel leaned over and licked the tip of his cock, feeling him move his seat back a bit to accommodate her. Slowly she slid her mouth down his cock, taking him deeper into her mouth. She swirled her tongue around him, sucking gently, loving to feel him in her mouth. With a moan, he placed his hand on the back of her head, encouraging her. He had to fight himself from closing his eyes while he drove.

"You want me to take him all the way?"

He moaned softly as her warm wet mouth moved farther down, taking him as far as she could, all the way to the base. She had become a pro with his cock. She claimed it as her own so many times before. She squirmed in the seat, tightening her mouth on him, moving her mouth faster on him. She loved being in control. It always made her so horny to know that she was calling all the shots. Still she preferred being on her back with him on top of her, his cock inside her, their arms around each other, his chest against her soft breasts, her face pressed against his warm neck. She felt so close to him then. He ran his hand through her hair as her mouth slid up and down on him, her hand moving up and down. He squeezed the back of her neck as she moved her mouth on him, her teeth lightly dragging across him like she knew he liked. He lifted his hips up, forcing more of his cock into her mouth. She struggled not to choke as more of his cock entered her mouth. She was anxious to make him cum, to make him happy, to please him.  She didn't want any of his thoughts drifting off to Laura and prayed that wasn't who he was thinking about as she pleasured him with her mouth.

She squirmed in her seat. And she was so turned on herself. She wanted to be touched, she wanted his cock inside her, thrusting inside her. His hand moved to her breast, pulling her bra up, then cupping them, handling her roughly in his excitement. He caressed her breasts, crushing them in his hands. He heard her moan around his cock. She was so aroused she thought she would start whimpering if she didn't get relief soon. She closed her eyes as his fingers found her nipple, pinching it between his thumb and finger. She heard him say her name, knew he was close and started moving faster on his cock, tightening her mouth around him. She loved making him cum.

Feeling him starting to orgasm, she kept her mouth locked on his cock, swallowing it all. She tried not to laugh when she felt the car swerve to the right. After she licked the tip of his cock once and sit up, he slid an arm around her, squeezing her to him and kissing the top of her head.

As he continued to drive Rachel knew she wouldn't be able to cool off. She laid back in her seat and unbuttoned her jeans. She smiled at him as she played with herself through her panties. "You're crazy if you think I was going to let you have complete control here." he smirked as he pulled her hand away and slid his hand down her pants, touching her.

She spread her legs, leaning against the car door to give him better access. She moaned as his fingers slid between her lips, touching her clit. He rubbed it gently, feeling her lifting her hips up into his touch. He took his eyes off the road for a moment to look at her. He continued to rub her, the jeans getting into his way. She whimpered in frustration. At this angle with her jeans on, he just couldn't touch her the way she wanted him to. She looked around. It was nice and dark. Pulling her hand away, she slid her jeans and panties down, and then leaned back against the door, spreading her legs. He went back to rubbing her, alternating between watching the road and watching her. After a moment, he sunk two fingers into her warm and wet center, his thumb finding her clit, feeling her instantly lift up, taking his fingers farther into her. He started thrusting his fingers in and out of her slowly, then picking up speed. As usual, his touch felt incredible. She loved being with him again.

She sunk farther down in her seat, closing her eyes, her mind totally blank except for the pleasure he was giving her. She moaned with ecstasy. After having JC in her mouth, it didn't take her long to get to the edge of orgasm. He pressed his fingers inside her deeply, rubbing her clit faster and faster, his fingers thrusting harder. She was soon writhing against his fingers. Feeling her tighten around his fingers, he knew she was close. "Cum for me." he commanded. His fingers combined with his deep voice telling her to cum was all that it took to push her over the edge. She cried out as the waves of pleasure washed over her. She leaned her head back against the window, trying to catch her breath. Slowly he pulled his hands away from her, smiling as he licked his fingers clean and watched her fix her clothes. All the frustrations of the day had disappeared...It had been a good night. After she had fixed her clothes, she laid her head down on his arm, taking his hand. Completely content, she whispered, "I love you." Snuggled up beside him, she led him to the entrance of the airport to head back home...Their home...Together."
